With the addition of 26 new members, The FASEB Journal recently increased the size of its editorial board by 50 percent. The editors were chosen to expand the interdisciplinary journal’s research expertise to new areas, and to deepen capabilities in established subjects.

In addition, a new associate editor joins the ranks of The FASEB Journal: Chen Dong of Tsinghua University in China, who brings expertise in immunology and immuno-oncology.

“With an impact factor of 5.595, The FASEB Journal is already sought out by investigators in a variety of fields,” said Thoru Pederson, Editor-in-Chief. “With the appointment of Dr. Dong and this robust expansion, researchers should know that the journal is a strong option for an even broader scope of exciting work. And in keeping with FASEB’s commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion, more than 50 percent of the new editors are women,” Pederson said.

In addition, three FASEB member societies have appointed new members to the editorial board:
The American Society for Bone and Mineral Research: Thomas Lang, University of California San Francisco
American Association of Anatomists: Samuel Marquez, State University of New York Downstate Medical Center
Association for Molecular Pathology: Ronald Pryzgodski, U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs
